Drogba ready to take pay-cut for Chelsea exit
Didier Drogba is desperate to quit Chelsea.
The Mirror says Drogba is trying to quit Chelsea - and was told by Luiz Felipe Scolari: Go if you want to.
Marseilles claim the want-away Drogba, dropped for tonight's huge FA Cup replay at Southend, rang officials at the French club after Chelsea’s humiliating 3-0 defeat at Manchester United on Sunday urging them to end his Stamford Bridge misery by landing him on loan.
The African, who spent a year at the Stade Velodrome before joining Chelsea, is utterly disenchanted with life under Scolari, blaming the Brazilian for the wretched form set to see him dumped in favour of Nicolas Anelka at Roots Hall.
A close friend said last night: "Didier is so disgusted with Chelsea that he is ready to go. He is happy to make a financial sacrifice, so long as he can play for a club that really wants him."

Please do not sell anyone before u get the replacement for the players that u already sell/want to sell. dun ruined our beloved The Blues!!! I miss Mourinho Era.
Hey if u think ur going any whrere on loan ur dreaming. If u want to go to marseille give us our £24M the we spent on u back and off u go. I know Marseille dont have the money and u probably do so lets see just how much u want to leave r u ganna spend £24M of ur own Money cmon. Otherwise u'll go to who ever wants to give us the money. BTW I would take Ben Afra and £15M
Pls there is nothing I want more rigth now then to get rid of this peice of C.rap. This is the perfect time to get rid of it ppl will be looking for strikers and will be willing to pay a lot. I would rother not sell him to Man City but if they make the best bid of about £30M i would take the Peice of C.rap to Manchester my self on a piggy back the whole way.
